The 1930s-Style Persecution of the Unjabbed

Ever since we first learnt about the cruel tutelage of the Nazi’s at school, each of us has wondered how it happened. How did an upstart political party – the National Socialist German Workers’ Party – come to power so quickly in Germany during the 1930s despite its toxic agenda and its cult of violence?

The second question that usually arises is: Would I have been complicit in the Nazi’s agenda of discriminating against Jews and gypsies and homosexuals? And we always tell ourselves – and anyone else who’ll listen – that we would never have supported the Nazi’s agenda:

We would have stood up for what is right.

We would have resisted.

Yet, the vast majority of Germans in the 1930s didn’t resist. The vast majority not only allowed the Nazi’s to come to power but also supported them once they were in power. The majority assisted in the persecution of ‘undesirables’ and even went to war to defend Nazi ideology.

Clearly, the numbers don’t stack up. How were so many Germans persuaded to support the Nazi’s? Were the Germans inherently evil? Or were other factors in play?

I’ve never been able to answer these questions, until now. Of course, I had been taught at school (in the 1980s) that Nazi propaganda had highlighted Jews as a minority that could be legitimately discriminated against, but I didn’t understand how this would work in practise. I didn’t understand how the majority could be manipulated so easily. I couldn’t see how the theory could become established in reality.

The response of the Government and the public to Covid19 has shown the way. The Government has responded with propaganda and authoritarianism and the public has responded with eager compliance.

“Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred.” ~ Joseph Goebbels

I now understand how Nazi-ism was able to succeed. Only now, as I witness the propaganda and authoritarianism being deployed by Western Liberal Democracies, fully supported by the bulk of the population, in order to sell a vaccine and tighten control, do I realise how it’s done. The secret to imposing a toxic ideology with the support of the population is to ensure that the imposition takes the form of a series of steps.

Each step must be presented, by experts, acting in concert with the media, as the only logical course of action in light of the circumstances.

Each step away from ‘normal’ must be presented as vitally important. But, also, each step away from normal must be sold as being the only way to return to normal. As in ‘only by giving up our freedoms can we win back our freedoms’. Genius!

Each step must be accompanied by a heavy programme of propaganda and behavioural psychology. Dissenting opinion must be suppressed.

Each step must be spun in such a way that the action is required not for our own benefit but for the benefit of others, i.e. our ‘loved ones’, or the country or ‘the vulnerable’. This plays on our innate need be helpful and to display selflessness.

Each step must be presented as the only way to make things better.

“If you tell a lie long enough, it becomes the truth.” ~ Joseph Goebbels

Once a step has been implemented, the ground must be prepared for the next step. All of the time, we are teased with the prospect that we are on a journey to salvation whilst not dwelling on how far we have been taken from ‘normal’.

The Government has been greatly assisted in all of this by the fact that the field of journalism has been hollowed out to such a degree in recent years that all that remains is a monolithic husk that merely parrots fashionable lines about Globalism. The journalism industry now universally supports Big State intervention because, since Brexit, journalists no longer trust the public to be left to make decisions for themselves.

“Not every item of news should be published. Rather must those who control news policies endeavor to make every item of news serve a certain purpose.” ~ Joseph Goebbels

However, authoritarianism and propaganda, whilst deeply claustrophobic to those who value freedom over safety, are not harmful on their own. No, the most potentially harmful parallel with the Nazi’s is the ongoing demonisation of those who have weighed up the risks and benefits and decided not to take the vaccine. Demonisation of a minority group is how authoritarianism turns fascist.

Specifically, the Nazi’s used 4 steps to demonise the Jews and we see those same 4 steps being used today to mobilise public opinion against the unvaccinated:

1)Prejudice:

The Nazi’s portrayed the Jews as inferior to Aryan Germans. Jews were also portrayed as being vectors for diseases such as TB and syphilis.

Today Liberal Democracies are fomenting prejudice against the unvaccinated. The propaganda states that everyone must be jabbed so that we are protected. ‘No one is safe until we’re all safe’. The messaging states that the unjabbed are selfish for not submitting to the vaccine.

2) Scapegoating

The Nazis started blaming every societal problem in Germany on the Jews. People were prepared to believe the scapegoating because they had already been trained to be prejudiced against Jews.

Liberal Democracies are scapegoating the unvaccinated by claiming the unvaccinated are vectors for spreading new variants of the virus. There’s always a new variant that can be used to demonise us. Another favourite trope is that the unjabbed comprise the vast majority of hospitalisations (unsupported by evidence). Also, we are told that the unvaccinated are stopping us from returning to ‘normal’. In this way, the government hopes to re-direct anger away from them and on to the unjabbed: ‘It’s not us [the government] preventing things from returning to normal, it’s them, the unjabbed. You should be angry with them’.

3) Discrimination

The Nazis implemented discriminatory laws against the Jews, such as forcing them to wear a yellow star. Such discrimination naturally led to citizens indulging in violent acts against Jews with impunity.

Liberal Democracies are implementing ‘vaccine passports’ whereby those who haven’t agreed to undergo the unlicensed, experimental vaccine will be denied access to certain services (eg nightclubs; football matches; flights). France has decided the unjabbed cannot even visit restaurants or shopping malls. Thankfully, we are not yet seeing violence enacted against the unjabbed but this is probably only because a vaccine passport does not have the visibility of a yellow star on your arm.

4) Persecution

The Nazis made life ever harder for Jews. They conviscated businesses and other assets. Then they sent them to concentration camps. Then they murdered them.

Liberal Democracies haven’t reached this point yet. However, the direction of travel teaches us that this is the next step. Already, there are ‘opinions’ appearing in the MSM that the unvaxxed should be denied free medical treatment and that they shouldn’t be allowed to use public transport. The ground is being prepared. The Governments are totally committed to vaccinations. There are no signs that Liberal Democracies will ease up on their obsession with Covid19 vaccines.

Nazi-ism flourished because the Nazi’s demonised an ‘out-class’ of people. At that point, the rest of the population were so relieved to be part of the ‘in-class’ that they turned on the out-class thereby cementing the power of the Nazi’s.
I fear that our authorities have found a new out-class to scapegoat: the unvaxxed. And, once again, the in-class are jumping on the bandwagon to show what good people they are.
The Germans were not inherently evil. They were just manipulated by a small coterie of people with bad intentions and effective propaganda. The same is happening now: it is the puppet-masters that are evil, not the puppets.

Many people feel it is sacrilegious to make comparisons with the treatment of the Jews in 1930s Germany. In treating that episode with such reverence they miss the point that we must ALWAYS make comparisons with 1930s Germany if we are to prevent it happening again. The time to make comparisons is not after the death count reaches 7 figures or even 4 figures, by then it’s far too late to stop. The time to make comparisons is before the first person has died. The only way to truly respect the treatment handed out in the 1930s is to pay close attention to the warning indicators that signal a dark turn is imminent and prevent that turn from being made. The time to make comparisons is when old ladies are being pepper-sprayed by the police for protesting covid restrictions.

Once this is normalised, what comes next?

The time to make comparisons is when people are sent to ‘Quarantine Camps’ against their will.

https://unherd.com/thepost/inside-australias-covid-internment-camp/

The time to make comparisons is when high-profile people demand the unjabbed be refused medical treatment by the NHS.

History tells us that that such rhetoric doesn’t lead to good outcomes

Those that do not learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them.

“There will come a day, when all the lies will collapse under their own weight, and truth will again triumph.” ~ Joseph Goebbels
